    The diamond is a great sand cleaner, but sometimes makes piles here and there. The yellow just stares at you most of the time. My wife laughs every time she sees him sitting there frowning at her.

    We have twins! Must be a 46 BF thing.... I have the exact same shrimp/goby combo. Aren't they great? I just glanced over my shoulder and they're bulldozing the front of the tank as I'm typing this. :)

    Thanks. The skimmer seems to be working well. I guess I am getting the hang of adjusting it because it is filling up with a nasty looking(and nasty smelling) yellowish/brownish liquid. I though my water looked really clean but I guess it wasn't as clean as I thought. I'm still working on fine tuning to try and get rid of some bubbles returning into the tank.

    They are a very entertaining pair. Sometime yesterday they decided to move. When I got home yesterday the shrimp was bulldozing away and the goby was supervising...and of course frowning the whole time. ;D
